RV Towing Newbie
...So much GREAT information! I have to chime in as I have a 1500 Laramie, 5.7 Hemi, and the 3.21 axle. Wife and I had a Roadtrek Class B van for a couple of years and wanted to switch to a trailer. So, we bought a 2015 Ram in 2019 and in the same year bought a Keystone Passport 23RB. About...- PappyD

Inherited a 1984 Celica GT coupe
Wow....that car will run a long time. I had a 1980 Celica GT, with the 20R engine. Saw yours and thought 20R or 22R. Strong engines! I had over 140K miles on my car when sold. All I did was change the oil, filters, etc. Plus, living in Texas (Houston too! Right off Westheimer on the SW...- PappyD

Avoid Cooper Tires Especially Discoverer at3
Sorry to hear about the bad experience with Cooper tires. I bought a 2015 Ram 1500 in 2019. The previous owner had replaced the Goodyear SRAs(ugghh) with Cooper Discoverer HT Plus tires. Kind of an in-between tire with an XL rating. Just a little beefier than a standard passenger tire and you...- PappyD

2015 Ram 1500 U07 Recall
Thanks FriedDumpling, Now I'm puzzled - the Ram site lists my 2015, by VIN, as needing the U07 update. However, the U07 update makes no mention of a gas tank recalibration. Hmm, other posts by owners of 2015 Rams with the 32 gallon tank that have had the U07 update completed report that the...- PappyD

2015 Ram 1500 U07 Recall
Just had the U07 recall done. "Autopark"... I had several other items under recall corrected as well... BUT, I was really interested in having the 32 gallon fuel tank read correctly. The most I've ever put in is about 27 gallons. Paid extra to get the bigger tank but am a little tired of...- PappyD

Inflating 1000HD air bags.
I've used a bike pump, small 12v compressor, and my bigger shop compressor. I'm very careful with the shop compressor and fill with short spurts. The bike pump works fine and is easily controlled. I run the Airlift 1000HD at around 22-25psi when I tow or haul anything heavy (like a load of...- PappyD

Uconnect Update Thru The Mail
Ok - quick update on the update... Followed the directions very closely and......success! Either I didn't leave the usb drive in position long enough(or maybe had it upside down?) but after about 20 seconds uconnect acknowledged the usb drive and began the update. Took at least 20 minutes...- PappyD

Uconnect Update Thru The Mail
Hmm...I received a usb chip but I don't subscribe to uconnect - I tried the update, thinking it would update "just in case" I wanted to pay... Update didn't work, so now I think I'll just leave it...not sold on the idea that I need to have uconnect. Kinda puzzled....- PappyD
